"Local Qntion.o

To the Editor of the Ledger.
MEXICO, NO., Nov. 29.-"Let
us reason together in harmony"
There appears to be at this time a
demand on the part of some people
to place letters upon the sale of in
toxicating liquors by saloons, and
invariably the advocate of local OPP
ton points out some one or more vic
TINS who get drunk and assigns
that as his aso for supporting
the Wood bill, as he is pleased to
call it. Never for once do we hear
one say that section 1889, Revised
Statutes, is a failure, and further,
that the penalty affixed in section
1914 is not sufficient, and L, as a
gentleman, have for years been do
ing my duty as a grand juror and
find that law totally a failure,
(Which it is and win be until en-
forced.) Article 8, section 1884,
Revised Statutes 1879, reads: Ell
any person shall give, sell OF
dispose of any s%pirituous or intoxi-
eating liquors to any Indian within
this State" or, "any person whois
intoxicated shall be deemed guilty
of a misdemeanor." Section 1914,
same article, reads: every per-
son who shall be convicted of any
misdemeanor under the provisions
of this article shall when no other
or different punishment is pre-
scribed for the offense, be punish
ed by imprisonment in the county
Jail not exceeding one year, or by
fine not exceeding one thousand
dollars, or by both fine and impris-
onment." Here we have local OPP
ton in its constitutional purity, and
not one case complained of has ever
been punished and that option To-
Gated within yourself. Then we ask,
where is there a demand for law
that will be violated and no one
can be punished, and why? There
is nothing in local option to hinder
the sale of alcohol in any quantity
without a prescription from a doc
tor. We consider this sufficient
and will add no more now, further
than to recommend a judicious en-
forcement of the laws now enacted
and not enact more to be violated,
as it is claimed these sections have
been, and be HAPPY, besides, save
money. AS you see, this law APP
plies to the one who may give or
dispose of it in any way whatever.
Now, therefore, unto you who have
cause of grievance 1 write this for
your benefit, that you may know
the remedy is already at your COM
mand with the strong arm of the
State of Missouri to support you il
you will only do your duty to your
self and your country.

A sixth prisoner was left IN the

it through the grating to his fellow

a hole sixteen inches square IN the
